This has become my favorite post, on any board, each week. What a great job by a true FCS fan. It is actually hard to believe that this is the only place with this kind of summary! I nominate you for a big raise!!!!

I didn't notice U of Delaware in your CAA.

Never mind, I was blind.

Worst Performance: Indiana St. 10, (#7) Southern Illinois 72 - This is why you don't fire your coach mid-season.

I doubt Coach West would have made much difference. The Sycamores were outmanned and outplayed.

Thanks!!!

(Unfortunately, I don't get paid for this, so any money at all would be a raise )

Thanks a ton for this post!

Great post - thanks for putting it together.
